Nomenclatural notes on the Papilionidae 

(Lepidoptera) 



Muhabbet Kemal •& Ahmet Omer Kocak 

Abstract: Nomenclatural notes on the Papilionidae (Lepidoptera). Cent. Ent Stud., Misc. Pap. 
91 /92: 10-11. In this paper, four subspecific replacement names are proposed due to the 
primary homonymy under the Homonymy Rules of the ICZN. Due to the same reason, one 
subspecific name is revived. Two junior primary homonyms are mentioned but no replacement 
name proposed. 
Key words: Lepidoptera, Papilionidae, homonymy, replacement names.

Misc. Pap. 91 /92: 11-14. 

In this paper, one subspecific, eight generic names are found as invalid due to the Homonymy 
Rules. Consequently, the following replacement names are proposed: Ethmia lecmima ssp. 
amsel {Ethmiidae), Yoshiyasiia, Bassiknysna (Pyralidae), Chiangmaiana, Yakovlevina 
(Cossidae), Schintlmeistera, Cauphucia, Vietnamina, Lanna {Notodontidae), Eitschbergera 
(Sphingidae), Razowskina (Tortricidae).

Nomenclatural Corrections on some Neotropical Sphingidae 

(Lepidoptera) 



Muhabbet Kemal Ahmet O. Kocak 

Abstract: Nomenclatural Corrections on some Neotropical Sphingidae (Lepidoptera). Centr. ent. Stud., 
Misc. Pap. 91/92: 14. This paper deals with some nomenclatural corrections of sphingid species from 
South America. Madoryx plutonins (Hubner,[1819]) is proposed as valid name. Sphinx phito 
Cramer,1779 is invalid as being junior primary homonym of Sphinx pluto Fabricius,1777 (syn.nov.). 
Key Words: Madoryx plntonius, Madoryx pluto, Sphingidae, Lepidoptera nomenclature, new synonym. 
South America. 

Checklist of the Neotropical Lepidoptera, covering the family Sphingidae has been published by 
Carcasson & Heppner (1996). During our preparation on the world wide data base program on the 
Lepidoptera, one specie?,, Madoryx pluto (Cramer, 1779) described from Surinam has been found by us as 
junior primary homonym. According to the current Zoological Code, this name must be treated as invalid. 
This short nomenclatural note has been prepared for this purpose. Our proposal are given below: 

a) Madoryx plutonius (Hubner,[1819]) (sp. rev.) 

= Sphinx pluto Cramer,1779 nee Fabricius,1777 (syn.nov.) 
= Hemeroplanes plutonius Hubner,[1819] 
= Madoryx deborrei Boisduval,[1875] 

Sphinx pluto Cramer, 1779 is invalid as being junior primary homonym of Sphinx pluto 
Fabricius,1777. The latter is currently used as valid name of a sphingid species in the genus Xylophanes 
Hubner,[1819] of the South America. 

The name Hemeroplanes plutonius Hubner,[1819] must be used as valid name for the species 
under discussion. 

Range of the species: South and Central America. 



b) Madoryx bubastus (Cramer,! 777) 

= lyncus Boisduval,[1875] 

= #babastus Carcasson & Hepner,1996 incorrect subsequent spelling (syn.nov.) 

c) Read date of publication oi ''Xylophanes ceratomioides" as "1867" instead of "1967" (see page 59, 
Carcasson & Heppner, 1996).

Nomenclatural notes on the South African Lepidoptera 
(Gelechiidae, Lymantriidae) 



Muhabbet Kemal Ahmet Omer Kocak 

Abstract: Nomenclatural notes on South African Lepidoptera {Gelechiidae, Lymantriidae). Centr. Ent. 
Stud., Misc. Pap. 91/92: 15. 

This paper deals with the following replacement names of the moth taxa of South Africa: Antoniejanse 
(nom. nov.) in the family Gelechiidae, and Lymantria heringi (nom.nov.) in the family Lymantriidae. 
Key Words: Lepidoptera, Lymantria heringi disparina Gelechiidae South Africa. 



GELECHIIDAE 

Antoniejanse (nom. nov.) 

Paratelphusa Janse,1958 (Moths of South Africa, Transvaal Museum, Pretoria 6: 61) is invalid, as it is 

junior homonym of Paratelphusa Zehntner, 1 894 (Revue Suisse Zool. 2: 169) [Crustacea]. Therefore, in 

accordance with the Homonymy Rules of ICZN, We propose here a replacement name Antoniejanse 

(nom. nov.) pro Paratelphusa Janse,1958 nee Paratelphusa Zehntner, 1894. We dedicate this name to 

Antonie Johannes Theodorus Janse, who had great contributions to the Lepidoptera fauna and taxonomy 

of South Africa. 

Type-species: Paratelphusa griseoptera Janse, 1958. 

Species included: 

Antoniejanse griseoptera (Janse, 195 8) (comb.n.) 

Antoniejanse reducta (Janse, 1958) (comb.n.) 

Range: South Africa. 

LYMANTRIIDAE 

Lymantria heringi (nom. nov.) 

Aclonophlebia disparina Hering,1926 ([in] Seitz,A., Die Gross-Schmett. Erde 14: 192) is invalid, as it is 
junior secondary homonym of Phalaena disparina Muller,1802 (Fauna Lepidopterorum Silesiaca 3:1) 
(currently considered in the genus Lymantria Hbn. {Lymantriidae)) (cf Vari et al.,2002: 169). Therefore, 
in accordance with the Homonymy Rules of ICZN, We propose here a replacement name, Lymantria 
heringi (nom. nov.) pro Lymantria disparina (Hering,1926) nee [Lymantria] Phalaena disparina 
Muller,1802.. We dedicate this name to the author of the taxon, who has great contributions to the 
Lepidoptera fauna and taxonomy of Africa. 
Range: South Africa: Transvaal (Limpopo Prov.).
